Course description and aims

This course introduces the outline of structural design method for concrete composite structures, especially reinforced concrete frame structures.
Students understand the outline of structural design method for concrete composite structures, especially reinforced concrete frame structures.

Student learning outcomes

At the end of this course, students will
1) understand structural detail of R/C structures,
2) calculate allowable and ultimate strength of R/C members,
3) calculate horizontal load bearing capacity of R/C frames and their design requirement,
4) know how factors originated from structural characteristics influence seismic behavior of R/C structures.

Keywords
